March So Far

What if this had been snow?
To start - it would have been neater, tidier....and since the arrival of our new snow blower, we aren’t a-scared anymore!
     Our back yard is more flooded than I can recall….I don’t know how rain equates to snow, but it would be deep! Our new sump pump is making happy sounds. Apparently it has been set to run about every 3 minutes, water or not…..well it has water! Will they still be chanting “water shortage” this summer? If so, where will all this liquid have gone?

     Had the “bump” in the road with the biopsy that turned out ok.
     Had the “bump” in the road with our dear cousin who has turned out more scary – her’s is cancer – but will be treated, and I am confident will be treated successfully. God bless those who spend their lives in research and surgical skills making our lives more hopeful.

     Our friends’ son, a high school senior impressed the heck out of us last night. He has had the lead in Man of La Mancha – and at times the play was pretty much a typical high school play – Simon Cowell would not have been impressed. But there were moments of absolute gold – our goose bumps had goose bumps! We were stock-still in our seats, frozen in awe – the two leads – Luke Kappler as Miguel de Cervantes and Erica Cavaliere as Aldonza took us to the place to which theater intends to take one. We didn’t breathe….our eyes filled with tears….and if their talent continues to develop – you must remember – you heard their names here first! And I can’t say enough about the music made by the Cherry Hill East Pit Orchestra…made up entirely of East Students…if you heard it, you would be stunned.
     We had hoped to share this experience with our grandson, but the timing didn’t work….it was a magical evening. It never hurts to dream….even an impossible dream.
